Caps after a rough road on the west punish ATlants then blank Montreal. Ovechkin had a hatrick (3 goals) and Kozlov and Fehr netted goals as the Caps at point held a 3 gaol 4-1 advantage and Theodore got the win. He was in net again vs Montreal where he saved 28 shots and shut his former team out. Ovechkin had another goal in this one driving right up to the goalie and going 5 hole to give the Caps a 2-0 lead after Nylander fed Fleichman on a steal by Fleichman deep in the Canadiens zone when a Dman tried the homerun pass from behjind the ent but Fleichman put his stick fdown in front of the pass and then passed to Nylander who gave it right back to Fleichman who netted the first goal. Then Dave Steckel degflected a shot from the point behind Montreal goalie (forgot his name) for a three nothing lead and that's what the game would end at. Montreal goalie 9is Halak. Backstrom assisted OV goal and Lepisto and laich assisted Steckel's. The Caps sit atop the southeast divisioon over Carolina who also won today beating Philli Phil. Theodore may very well be in net tommorow as the Caps face Columbus. I might also see Brent Johnson get the start because he has been good too. hopefully Semin and Fedorov and Green can reuturn by next week because the Caps would love to see those guys back in action.
